Lauer has always known that the make-or-break audience for “The Passion” is the active Christian community, which could effectively kill the film if it discerned even a hint of blasphemy. As Paula Fredriksen has written in The New Republic, “evangelical Christians, in my experience, know their Scriptures very, very well.” ...."http://weblog.theviewfromthecore.com/2003_09/ind_002398.html

Both at my Calvary Chapel Church as well as my in-laws conservative Baptist Church The Passion was hailed as a great work. Basically everything that was obviously non-biblical was dismissed as Catholic. However, since they were non-essential items, they were considered ok in the spirit of liberty. Such items are the shrieking kids or the serpent in the garden.
